Title: Blank Screen after loading several MAMES? X Gaming Arcade Machine with tankstick
Post by: NEWBMAME on January 17, 2013, 07:49:11 pm
Hey all hoping you can help me I have been trying to get several games loaded into my MAME ROM folder tons of the games work and then some give me a blank screen after I click to open the game.  I see the game in my list (example Super Mario Brothers MAME ROM) or SMB / PC_Mario.  When I click on the game sometimes it will show "loading" and then go black, others will just go "blank".  I know the roms work because to many of them do this its to odd. I have also downloaded the same rom from several sites and same thing.  I use the it on my new X gaming system any suggestions?

 select configuration tab
Select Mame. Towards the bottom left of the screen is a drop down for path. Change this, I changed from short
Path to long path now all my games work. Maybe it will work for you :)

also before you play games using Maximus try playing games on emulator you might be missing files... :cheers:
